[Issue Running Cura from Source on Ubuntu]

I am currently making my way through the Alternative Cura-build CMake Workflow included on the "Running Cura from Source on Ubuntu" article of the Cura Wiki.

I have hit a wall trying to get Qt to properly install when making the cura-build-environment. I keep getting this error:

 

ERROR: Feature ‘xcb’ was enabled, but the pre-condition ‘features.thread && libs.xcb && tests.xcb_syslibs && features.xkbcommon-x11’ failed

The full terminal text can be found in this Pastebin and the config.log can be found in this one.

 

I've tried installing a ton of potential dependencies and have tried implementing this solution to no avail.

 

Has anybody seen this before? Any clues as to how to how I can get past?

Thanks!

The instructions already tell you to tell cmake to not use debug mode (-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release).

I'm receiving the error in Step 5 of the Pynest2D compilation. The instructions don't direct me to use that flag until Step 10.

Since you're building full Cura, including the engine though, you probably have at least the pthread header on your system though.

How would I get the pthread header on my system?

Alternatively (depending on what you're trying to achieve), if neither switching to Release or including the pthread header works

What do you mean by "switching to release?"

 

 

What do you guys make of this section of the log in particular?

I've got a few follow-up questions. Sorry in advance for how basic they might be.

1. How can you tell I'm in debug mode? How would I switch out of it?
2. When you say "Switch to release," what exactly do you mean?
3. How would I "include the pthread header?"

Thanks!

I still seem to be encountering errors compiling Pynest2D, even after modifying the VS install as you outlined above. I have attached relevant log files.

Perhaps I'm not looking in the right place, but it almost seems like even though I have "MSVC v140 - VS 2015" checked in the installation details, it doesn't seem to be installed.

I am currently making my way through the library compilation detailed in the "Running Cura from Source on Windows" article of the Wiki.

I seem to have hit a snag at Pynest2D. Attached you may find the error I receive in the VS2019 Terminal when I attempt to complete step 5.

Anybody have ideas as to how to best proceed? Thanks!
